Karla Grant on 23 years of Living Black: ‘It’s up to my generation to step up’

When Living Black host, journalist and Western Arrernte producer Karla Grant was growing up, she didn’t see herself reflected on screen.

‘I didn’t see any Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander faces on the TV, and if I did, it was always in a negative light,’ she recalls. ‘I didn’t see any positive stories.’
